Help Neural Therapy, Scar Therapy-Maybe?!!

Has anyone heard of or tried neural therapy. It is commonly used in Germany to treat conditions like rsd and many other disorders. I have been told it is usually successful if you can pinpoint the orgin of or the onset of your Pain. For most of us that is very easy. There is a woman in Tampa that claims to have "cured" several people wtih full body rsd using this therapy as well as many people with other severe chronic pain issues. I am curious if anyone has heard of this therapy or knows of anyone who has tired it. Below is the link and a quote fromt he site. I'm really interestd in this, could it be this simple?? She swears her results have been incredible. Please let me know what you think. I'm considering this but I am really tenative.The one time I begged my Pain management doctor to inject directly into my foot because I thought it would help the severe pain I was having- it was a huge mistake. The swelling and fire that followed lasted for weeks. I could not walk at all. so the thought of letting someone inject diretly into my scar on my shin, my orginal injury site is terrifying. But when you speak to this doctor she is very convincing. Next Im going to ask to speak to people she says she has helped I think. I need advice. thanks so much, CZ


The simple theory is below, I think it makes alot of sense. what do you think?

Quote:
scar tissue can create an abnormal electric signal. In turn this signal is transmitted throughout the rest of your body via the autonomic nervous system. Procaine delivered by direct injection to scars or through other nerves that travel into deeper scars through tiny tubules in the cellular matrix to these areas of bioelectrical disturbance for treatment. As a result, Procaine is capable of eliminating autonomic regulatory dysfunctions. Since the autonomic nervous system is the master controller of the body, Neural Therapy can have a profound impact on your condition and your ability to heal.

I haven't hear of this before CZ but I'm checking with my German medical contact.

I'll let you know when I hear back.

There's a guy in LA, Aaron G. Filler, MD, PhD, who used to be on the UCLA faculty, who's been doing this surgery - under an MRI thank you - for years. Although his website used to list a number of unpublished papers dealing with the treatment of CRPS, I can't seem to find them now. Here's his specific page on Nerve Entrapment, you can link to the rest of his site from there: http://www.nervemed.com/nerve-entrapment/

What I'm advised is that there may be just as much risk in creating new scar tissue/adhesion in the surgery as you were attempting to alieviate in the first place. That said, I spoke to a lady a few years ago who swore by the procedure. So who knows?

My German medical contact has used the neural therapy in his practice for years with good results. Yes it is true that it is widely practiced throughout Germany. His experience is that it was best used for people who had neck or lumbar associated pain.

He said he would be very hesitant to use it on an RSD patient because of the punctures.
